UNESCO has long promoted a humanistic vision of learning based on principles of respect for life, human dignity, and cultural diversity, as well as social justice and international solidarity. This vision has been outlined in the two landmark publications, Learning to Be (1972) and Learning: The Treasure Within (1996). UNESCO is now building on these reports to rethink education in the current context of change, complexity, and uncertainty.

Learning: The Treasure Within, commonly referred to as the 'Delors Report', proposes a holistic and integrated vision of education based on the paradigms of lifelong learning, and the four pillars of learning to be, to know, to do, and to live together.

Gujarat continues to be the top performer in water management even as Andhra Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Himachal Pradesh have further increased their scores over the last three years, according to a report by NITI Aayog. Meanwhile, states, including Jharkhand, Uttar Pradesh, Odisha and Bihar, continued to be in the low-performing category.
The Comprehensive Water Management Index (CWMI) by NITI Aayog, which measures the performance of states on a set of water indicators, comes at a time when various states across the country are facing a shortage in groundwater.
The CWMI also looks at states' relative performance in the last three years. This report comprises nine themes, including attention to groundwater, restoration of water bodies and covers 25 states, two Union Territories.
The maximum possible score is a 100 and Gujarat, for the second year in a row, was the topper with 75 points. "Delhi, assessed on the index for the first time this year, scores the lowest with 20 points. This is alarming, considering Delhi's position as the country's capital territory, and its population of two crore people whose water, arguably, is being poorly managed," the report underlines. "

It was first held in 1995. In the first edition, only four littoral navies had participated in it. "
